Summary
This detection rule focuses on identifying attempts to load drivers that have been blocked due to their certificates being revoked. It is essential for organizations to monitor such activities as loading revoked drivers can pose significant security risks, including privilege escalation and exploitation opportunities for attackers. The rule monitors Windows Code Integrity logs, specifically filtering for EventID 3023, which indicates a blocked driver load attempt. When this event is detected, it signifies an attempt to violate code integrity policies within the Windows environment, allowing security teams to respond proactively to potentially unauthorized software execution. This contributes significantly to maintaining the integrity and security of the Windows operating system by preventing malicious drivers from being loaded and executed. The references provided give further context on the events and operations related to application control and code integrity in Windows environments, supporting analysts in understanding the implications of these detections further.
